If launching yourself at an advancing striker like a shooting starfish is not your thing, Paul Robinson has an alternative means to winning a one-on-one.
The former England goalkeeper believes a striker's inability to engage their brain is their Achilles heel.
"Give the striker as much time to think as you can, because they’re not good when they have time to think," says the Blackburn custodian.
"When they have time to think that’s when you’ve won the battle. If he looks up and has a look at you, you’re half-way there."
